This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the Report), including Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of Part I of this Report,
contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words believe, project, expect, anticipate,
estimate, intend, strategy, plan, may, should, will, would, will be, will continue, will likely result, and similar
expressions. It is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements or transactions. Information on factors which could impact actual results and cause them to differ from what is anticipated in
the forward-looking statements contained herein is included in this Report as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), including but not limited to those described in Item 1A. Risk Factors
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as filed with the SEC on March 5, 2012 (the 2011 Annual Report). We do not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements. Additionally, a
description of our critical accounting estimates is included in the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of our 2011 Annual Report. There has been no significant change in our critical
accounting estimates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we deconsolidated a wholly-owned subsidiary because we no longer had control over the activities that
most significantly impact its economic performance following possession of the property by a receiver (Note 13). The following table presents the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary on the date of deconsolidation (in thousands):

Corporate Property Associates 15 Incorporated (CPA®:15
and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries and predecessors, we, us or our) is a publicly owned, non-listed real estate investment trust (REIT) that invests primarily in commercial properties
leased to companies domestically and internationally. As a REIT, we are not subject to United States (U.S.) federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income, the level
of our distributions and other factors. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net leased basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially all of the costs associated with
operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation because of the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults and sales of properties. At
March 31, 2012, our portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in 313 properties, substantially all of which were triple-net leased to 76 tenants, and totaled approximately 28 million square feet (on a pro rata
basis), with an occupancy rate of approximately 99%. We were formed in 2001 and are managed by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC (WPC) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the advisor).

On February 17, 2012, we and WPC entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which we will merge with and into a subsidiary of WPC, W. P. Carey
Inc., for a combination of cash and shares of WPC common stock as described below (the Proposed Merger) (after WPC has completed its previously-announced conversion to a REIT). In connection with the Proposed Merger, W. P. Carey Inc.
filed a registration statement on March 23, 2012 with the SEC regarding the shares of common stock (WPC Common Stock) to be issued to our shareholders in the Proposed Merger. Special meetings will be scheduled to obtain the approval
of our shareholders and WPCs shareholders of the Proposed Merger. The closing of the Proposed Merger is subject to customary closing conditions and to the condition that WPC has completed its previously-announced conversion to a REIT. If the
Proposed Merger is approved and the other closing conditions are met, we currently expect that the closing will occur by the third quarter of 2012, although there can be no assurance of such timing.

In February 2012, our Board of Directors suspended participation in our dividend reinvestment and share purchase plan (DRIP) in light of the
Proposed Merger.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes
necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring
adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, financial position and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes for the year ended December 31, 2011, which are included in our 2011 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this
Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements included in this Report have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the disposition (or planned disposition) of certain properties as discontinued operations
for all periods presented.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries. The portion of equity in a subsidiary that is not attributable,
directly or indirectly, to us is presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

For the periods presented, our international investments were comprised of investments in the European Union. The following tables present information
about these investments (in thousands):

Counterparty Credit Risk Portfolio Exception Election

Effective January 1, 2011, or the effective date, we have made an accounting policy election to use the exception in Accounting Standards Codification 820-10-35-18D, the portfolio
exception, with respect to measuring counterparty credit risk for derivative instruments, consistent with the guidance in 820-10-35-18G. We manage credit risk for our derivative positions on a counterparty-by-counterparty basis (that is, on
the basis of its net portfolio exposure with each counterparty), consistent with our risk management strategy for such transactions. We manage credit risk by considering indicators of risk such as credit ratings, and by negotiating terms in our
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (ISDA) master netting arrangements with each individual counterparty. Credit risk plays a central role in the decision of which counterparties to consider for such relationships and
when deciding with whom it will enter into derivative transactions. Since the effective date, we have monitored and measured credit risk and calculated credit valuation adjustments for our derivative transactions on the basis of its relationships at
ISDA master netting arrangement level. We receive reports from an independent third-party valuation specialist on a quarterly basis providing the credit valuation adjustments at the counterparty portfolio level for purposes of reviewing and managing
our credit risk exposures. Since the portfolio exception applies only to the fair value measurement and not to financial statement presentation, the portfolio-level adjustments are then allocated in a reasonable and consistent manner each period to
the individual assets or liabilities that make up the group, in accordance with other applicable accounting guidance and our accounting policy elections. Derivative transactions are measured at fair value in the statement of financial position each
reporting period. We note that key market participants take into account the existence of such arrangements that mitigate credit risk exposure in the event of default. As such, we elect to apply the portfolio exception in 820-10-35-18D with respect
to measuring counterparty credit risk for all of our derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

We have
an advisory agreement with the advisor whereby the advisor performs certain services for us for a fee. The agreement that is currently in place is scheduled to expire on the earlier of the date that the Proposed Merger is consummated or
September 30, 2012. Under the terms of this agreement, the advisor manages our day-to-day operations, for which we pay the advisor asset management and performance fees, and structures and negotiates the purchase and sale of investments and
debt placement transactions for us, for which we pay the advisor structuring and subordinated disposition fees. In addition, we reimburse the advisor for certain administrative duties performed on our behalf. We also have certain agreements with
joint investments. The following tables present a summary of fees we paid and expenses we reimbursed to the advisor in accordance with the advisory agreement (in thousands):

(a)

Asset management and performance fees are included in Property expenses in the consolidated financial statements. For 2012, the advisor elected to receive its asset
management fees and performance fees in cash. For 2011, the advisor elected to receive its asset management fees in cash and 80% of its performance fees in shares, with the remaining 20% payable in cash. At March 31, 2012, the advisor owned
10,395,810 shares (7.9%) of our common stock.

(b)

Personnel and office rent reimbursements are included in General and administrative expenses in the consolidated financial statements. Based on gross revenues through
March 31, 2012, our current share of future annual minimum lease payments would be $0.5 million annually through 2016.

(c)

Current and deferred acquisition fees were capitalized and included in the cost basis of the assets acquired.

(d)

We paid annual deferred acquisition fee installments of $1.5 million and $2.2 million in cash to the advisor in January 2012 and January 2011, respectively.

(e)

Mortgage refinancing fees are capitalized and amortized over the life of the new loans.

(f)

These fees, which are subordinated to the performance criterion and certain other provisions included in the advisory agreement, are deferred and payable to the advisor
only in connection with a liquidity event. See Proposed Merger below.

Jointly-Owned Investments and Other Transactions with
Affiliates

We own interests in entities ranging from 15% to 75%, as well as jointly-controlled tenancy-in-common interests in properties,
with the remaining interests generally held by affiliates. We consolidate certain of these investments and account for the remainder under the equity method of accounting.

In the Proposed Merger, our shareholders will be entitled to receive $1.25 in cash and 0.2326 shares of WPC common stock for each share of our common stock owned, which equated to $11.73 per share based
on WPCs $45.07 per share closing price as of February 17, 2012, the date that the merger agreement was signed. Due to the fixed stock component of the merger consideration, the value of the merger consideration will fluctuate with changes
in the market price of WPCs shares. Our estimated net asset value per share (NAV) was $10.40 as of September 30, 2011, the most recent available date. The advisor computed our NAV internally, relying in part upon a third-party
valuation of our real estate portfolio and indebtedness as of September 30, 2011. The estimated total Proposed Merger consideration includes cash of approximately $151.8 million and the issuance of approximately 28,241,000 shares of WPC common
stock, based on our total shares outstanding of 131,566,206, of which 10,153,074 shares were owned by WPC, on February 17, 2012. Additionally, if the Proposed Merger is consummated, WPC has agreed to waive its subordinated disposition and
termination fees. The Proposed Merger is generally expected to be tax-free for U.S. Federal purposes, except for any gain up to the amount of the cash consideration and the receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares.

In February 2012, our Board of Directors suspended participation in our DRIP in light of the Proposed Merger.

We did not acquire any real estate assets during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Assets disposed of during
the current year period are discussed in Note 13.

Other

In connection with our prior acquisitions of properties, through March 31, 2012 we have recorded net lease intangibles of $269.8 million, which are being amortized over periods ranging from two to 40
years. There were no new intangible assets or liabilities recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2012. In-place lease, tenant relationship and above-market rent intangibles are included in Intangible assets, net in the consolidated
financial statements. Below-market rent intangibles are included in Prepaid and deferred rental income and security deposits in the consolidated financial statements. Amortization of below-market and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an
adjustment to Lease revenues, while amortization of in-place lease and tenant relationship intangibles is included in Depreciation and amortization. Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $4.2
million and $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Note 5. Finance Receivables

Assets representing rights to receive money on demand or at fixed or determinable dates are referred to as finance receivables. Our
finance receivable portfolios consist of our Net investments in direct financing leases. Operating leases are not included in finance receivables as such amounts are not recognized as an asset in the consolidated balance sheets.

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables

We generally seek investments in facilities that we believe are critical to each tenants business and that we believe have a low risk of tenant
defaults. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we established an allowance for credit losses of $3.1 million. At March 31, 2012, none of the balances of our finance receivables were past due and we had not established any allowances
for credit losses. Additionally, there have been no modifications of finance receivables. We evaluate the credit quality of our tenant receivables utilizing an internal 5-point credit rating scale, with 1 representing the highest credit quality and
5 representing the lowest. The credit quality evaluation of our tenant receivables was last updated in the first quarter of 2012.

A summary of our finance receivables by internal credit quality rating for the periods presented is as

respectively, of accounts receivable related to amounts billed under these direct financing leases.

Note 6. Equity Investments in Real
Estate

We own interests in single-tenant net lease properties leased to corporations through noncontrolling interests (i) in
partnerships and limited liability companies that we do not control but over which we exercise significant influence and (ii) as tenants-in-common subject to common control. Generally, the underlying investments are jointly-owned with
affiliates. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting (i.e., at cost, increased or decreased by our share of earnings or losses, less distributions, plus contributions and other adjustments required by equity method
accounting, such as basis differences from other-than-temporary impairments).

The following table sets forth our ownership interests in our
equity investments in real estate and their respective carrying values. The carrying value of these investments is affected by the timing and nature of distributions (dollars in thousands):

other-than-temporary impairment charges.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurements

Under current authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements, the fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is
sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level
1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within
Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps and swaps; and Level 3, for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions, such as
certain securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items we
have also provided the unobservable inputs along with their weighted-average ranges.

Other Securities and Derivative Assets  Our
other securities are comprised of our interest in the Carey Commercial Mortgage Trust (CCMT) and our investments in equity units in Rave Reviews Cinemas, LLC. Our derivative assets consisted of stock warrants that were granted to us by
lessees in connection with structuring initial lease transactions. These assets are not traded in an active market. We estimated the fair value of these assets using internal valuation models that incorporate market inputs and our own assumptions
about future cash flows. We classified these assets as Level 3. The unobservable input for CCMT is the discount rate applied to the expected cash flows with a weighted-average range of 7%-10%. Significant increases or decreases to this input in
isolation would result in significant change in the fair value measurements.

Derivative Liabilities  Our derivative
liabilities are comprised of interest rate swaps. These derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest rates. These derivative instruments were classified as Level 2 as these
instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.

The following tables set forth our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a
recurring basis. Assets and liabilities presented below exclude assets and liabilities owned by unconsolidated jointly-owned investments (in thousands):

We did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 measurements during the three months ended
March 31, 2012 and 2011. Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) included in earnings are reported in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements.

Our other financial instruments, which we classify as Level 2, had the following carrying values and
fair values as of the dates shown (in thousands):

We determined the estimated fair value of our debt instruments using a discounted cash flow model with rates that take
into account the credit of the tenants and interest rate risk. We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities (excluding net investments in direct financing leases) had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both
March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

We perform an assessment, when required, of the value of certain of our real estate investments in accordance with current authoritative accounting
guidance. As part of that assessment, we determine the valuation of these assets using widely accepted valuation techniques, including expected discounted cash flows or an income capitalization approach, which considers prevailing market
capitalization rates. We review each investment based on the highest and best use of the investment and market participation assumptions. We determined that the significant inputs used to value these investments fall within Level 3. As a result of
our assessments, we calculated impairment charges based on market conditions and assumptions that existed at the time. The valuation of real estate is subject to significant judgment and actual results may differ materially if market conditions or
the underlying assumptions change.

The following table presents information about our other assets that were measured on a fair value basis
for the periods presented. All of the impairment charges and allowances for credit losses were measured using unobservable inputs (Level 3) and were recorded based on market conditions and assumptions that existed at the time (in thousands):

Note 8. Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management

In the normal
course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are three main components of economic risk: interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk. We are primarily subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing
liabilities. Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and tenants inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans as well as changes
in the value of our other securities due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. In addition, we own investments in the European Union and are subject to the risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates.

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the Euro and, to a lesser extent, the British Pound Sterling. We manage foreign
currency exchange rate movements by generally placing both our debt obligation to the lender and the tenants rental obligation to us in the same currency. This reduces our overall exposure to the actual equity that we have invested and the
equity portion of our cash flow. However, we are subject to foreign currency exchange rate movements to the extent of the difference

in the timing and amount of the rental obligation and the debt service. We may also face challenges with repatriating cash from our foreign investments. We may encounter instances where it is
difficult to repatriate cash because of jurisdictional restrictions or because repatriating cash may result in current or future tax liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings related to foreign currency
transactions are included in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements.

When we use derivative instruments, it is
generally to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements. We have not entered, and do not plan to enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In addition to derivative
instruments that we entered into on our own behalf, we may also be a party to derivative instruments that are embedded in other contracts, and we may own common stock warrants, granted to us by lessees when structuring lease transactions, that are
considered to be derivative instruments. The primary risks related to our use of derivative instruments are that a counterparty to a hedging arrangement could default on its obligation or that the credit quality of the counterparty may be downgraded
to such an extent that it impairs our ability to sell or assign our side of the hedging transaction. While we seek to mitigate these risks by entering into hedging arrangements with counterparties that are large financial institutions that we deem
to be creditworthy, it is possible that our hedging transactions, which are intended to limit losses, could adversely affect our earnings. Furthermore, if we terminate a hedging arrangement, we may be obligated to pay certain costs, such as
transaction or breakage fees. We have established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities.

We measure derivative instruments at fair value and record them as assets or liabilities, depending on our rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not
designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated and qualified as a fair value hedge, the change in the fair value of the derivative is offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset,
liability, or firm commitment through earnings. For a derivative designated and that qualified as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Other comprehensive income until the hedged
item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivatives change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

See below for information on our purposes for entering into derivative instruments, including those not
designated as hedging instruments, and for information on derivative instruments owned by unconsolidated jointly-owned investments, which are excluded from the tables above.

Interest Rate Swaps

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily
through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we attempt to obtain mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners may obtain variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans and,
as a result, may enter into interest rate swap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of the loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a
stream of interest payments for a counterpartys stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to
interest rate movements.

The interest rate swaps that we had outstanding on our consolidated subsidiaries at March 31, 2012 were
designated as cash flow hedges and are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

We own stock warrants that were generally granted to us by lessees in connection with structuring initial lease transactions. These warrants are defined
as derivative instruments because they are readily convertible to cash or provide for net cash settlement upon conversion.

Embedded Credit
Derivative

We own interests in a German unconsolidated investment that obtained non-recourse mortgage financing for which the interest
rate has both fixed and variable components. We account for this investment under the equity method of accounting. In connection with providing the financing, the lender entered into an interest rate swap agreement on its own behalf through which
the fixed interest rate component on the financing was converted into a variable interest rate instrument. Through the investment, we have the right, at our sole discretion, to prepay the debt at any time and to participate in any realized gain or
loss on the interest rate swap at that time. This participation right is deemed to be an embedded credit derivative. Based on valuations obtained at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the embedded credit derivative had no value and a
fair value of less than $0.1 million, respectively, including the effect of foreign currency translation. For both the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, this derivative generated an unrealized loss of less than $0.1 million. Amounts
provided are the total amounts attributable to the investment and do not represent our proportionate share. Changes in the fair value of the embedded credit derivative are recognized in the investments earnings.

Other

Amounts reported in Other
comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. At March 31, 2012, we estimate that an additional $4.7 million, inclusive of amounts attributable to
noncontrolling interests of $1.2 million, will be reclassified as interest expense during the next 12 months.

Some of the agreements we have with our derivative counterparties contain certain credit contingent
provisions that could result in a declaration of default against us regarding our derivative obligations if we either default or are capable of being declared in default on certain of our indebtedness. At March 31, 2012, we had not been
declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives that were in a net liability position was $15.6 million and $14.5 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which
included accrued interest but excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk. If we had breached any of these provisions at either March 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these
agreements at their aggregate termination value of $16.9 million or $15.7 million, respectively, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests totaling $4.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

Portfolio Concentration Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a group of tenants is engaged in similar business activities or is subject to similar economic risks or
conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. While we believe our portfolio is reasonably well diversified, it does contain
concentrations in excess of 10%, based on the percentage of our annualized contractual minimum base rent for the first quarter of 2012, in certain areas, as shown in the tables below. The percentages in the tables below represent our directly-owned
real estate properties and do not include our pro rata share of equity investments.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

Various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business are pending against us. The results of these proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated
financial position or results of operations.

We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. For investments in real estate in
which an impairment indicator is identified, we follow a two-step process to determine whether the investment is impaired and to determine the amount of the charge. First, we compare the carrying value of the real estate to the future net
undiscounted cash flow that we expect the real estate will generate, including any estimated proceeds from the eventual sale of the real estate. If this amount is less than the carrying value, the real estate is considered to be impaired, and we
then measure the loss as the excess of the carrying value of the real estate over the estimated fair value of the real estate, which is primarily determined using market information such as recent comparable sales or broker quotes. If relevant
market information is not available or is not deemed appropriate, we then perform a future net cash flow analysis discounted for inherent risk associated with each investment.

During the first quarter of 2011, we recognized an impairment charge of $8.6 million, inclusive of amounts attributable
to noncontrolling interests of $2.9 million, on a property leased to Symphony IRI Group, Inc. in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated fair value, which reflected the contracted selling price. In June 2011, the property was sold. The
results of operations of this property are included in Loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

Note
11. Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interest is the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly,
to a parent. There were no changes in our ownership interest in any of our consolidated subsidiaries for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The following table presents a reconciliation of total equity, the equity attributable to our shareholders and the equity attributable to noncontrolling interests (in thousands):

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. We believe we have operated, and we intend to continue to operate, in a manner that allows us to continue
to qualify as a REIT. Under the REIT operating structure, we are permitted to deduct distributions paid to our shareholders and generally will not be required to pay U.S. federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for U.S. federal
income taxes in the consolidated financial statements.

We conduct business in the various states and municipalities within the U.S. and in
the European Union, and as a result, we file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and certain foreign jurisdictions.

We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with current authoritative accounting guidance. At both March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had unrecognized tax benefits of $0.3
million that, if recognized, would have a favorable impact on our effective income tax rate in future periods. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. At both March 31, 2012 and
December 31, 2011, we had $0.1 million of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions.

Our tax returns are subject to audit by
taxing authorities. Such audits can often take years to complete and settle. The tax years 2006 through 2012 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject.

Note 13. Discontinued Operations

From
time to time, tenants may vacate space due to lease buy-outs, elections not to renew their leases, insolvency or lease rejection in the bankruptcy process. In these cases, we assess whether we can obtain the highest value from the property by
re-leasing or selling it. In addition, in certain cases, we may try to sell a property that is occupied. When it is appropriate to do so under current accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, we classify the property as an asset
held for sale on our consolidated balance sheet and the current and prior period results of operations of the property are reclassified as discontinued operations.

The results of operations for properties that are held for sale or have been sold are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented and are
summarized as follows (in thousands):

2012  In February 2012, we sold a property leased to Barth Europa Transporte e.K for $4.0 million,
net of selling costs, and recognized a gain on the sale of $1.0 million.

In February 2012, we sold a vacant property previously leased to
Lillian Vernon for $17.4 million, net of selling costs, and recognized a loss on the sale of $1.7 million. In connection with the sale, we paid $15.8 million to the lender in full satisfaction of the $16.5 million non-recourse mortgage loan
encumbering the property, and recognized a gain of $0.7 million on extinguishment of debt.

2011  During the three months
ended March 31, 2011, we sold two domestic properties for $2.4 million, net of selling costs, and recognized a net gain on these sales of $0.7 million, excluding impairment charges of $0.3 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Loss from discontinued operations during the three months ended March 31, 2011 includes results of operations and an impairment charge
of $8.6 million for a property sold in June 2011 (Note 10).

In February 2011, when we stopped making payments on the related non-recourse
debt obligation, a consolidated subsidiary consented to a court order appointing a receiver involving properties that were previously leased to Advanced Accessory Systems LLC. As we no longer had control over the activities that most significantly
impact the economic performance of this subsidiary

following possession of the properties by the receiver in February 2011, the subsidiary was deconsolidated during the first quarter of 2011. At the date of deconsolidation, the properties had a
carrying value of $2.7 million, reflecting the impact of impairment charges of $8.4 million recognized in prior years, and the related non-recourse mortgage loan had an outstanding balance of $6.1 million. In connection with this deconsolidation, we
recognized a gain of $4.5 million during the first quarter of 2011. We believe that our retained interest in this deconsolidated entity had no value at the date of deconsolidation. We have recorded income (loss) from operations and gain recognized
upon deconsolidation as discontinued operations, as we have no significant influence on the entity and there are no continuing cash flows from the properties.

Note 14. Subsequent Event

In April 2012, a subsidiary in which we and WPC hold interests
of 54% and 46%, respectively, sold its interest in six properties leased to Médica  France, S.A. for approximately $55.2 million. Based on our ownership interest, our share of the proceeds will be approximately $29.8 million.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

Managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations
(MD&A) is intended to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. MD&A
also provides the reader with our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our 2011 Annual Report.

Business Overview

We are a publicly
owned, non-listed REIT that invests in commercial properties leased to companies domestically and internationally. As a REIT, we are not subject to U.S. federal income taxation as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the
nature of our income, the level of our distributions and other factors. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to single corporate tenants, primarily on a triple-net lease basis, which requires the tenant to pay substantially
all of the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property. Revenue is subject to fluctuation because of the timing of new lease transactions, lease terminations, lease expirations, contractual rent adjustments, tenant defaults and
sales of properties. We were formed in 2001 and are managed by the advisor.

We consider the performance metrics listed above, including certain supplemental metrics that are not defined by GAAP
(non-GAAP), such as Modified funds from operations (MFFO), and Adjusted cash flow from operating activities (ACFO), to be important measures in the evaluation of our results of operations, liquidity and capital
resources. We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on the ability to generate cash flow necessary to meet our objectives of funding distributions to shareholders. See Supplemental Financial Measures below for our definition of
these non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Total revenues increased for the three months
ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the receipt of $4.8 million in lease termination income related to the former Thales S.A. investment.

Net income attributable to CPA®:15 shareholders increased for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily as a result of the increase in revenue as
described above, offset in part by an increase in general and administrative expenses due to the Proposed Merger.

For the three months ended
March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, our MFFO supplemental measure increased by $2.5 million, primarily as a result of the increase in revenue as described above.

Cash flow from operating activities increased by $4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to the increase in net income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, ACFO increased by $1.9 million, primarily due to the
increase in cash flow from operating activities.

Our quarterly cash distribution was $0.1823 per share for the first quarter of 2012, which equates to
$0.7292 per share on an annualized basis.

Recent Developments

Proposed Merger

On February 17, 2012, we and WPC entered into a definitive agreement
pursuant to which we will merge with and into a subsidiary of WPC, W. P. Carey Inc., for a combination of cash and shares of WPC common stock as described below (after WPC has completed its previously-announced conversion to a REIT). In connection
with the Proposed Merger, W. P. Carey Inc. filed a registration statement on March 23, 2012 with the SEC regarding the shares of WPC Common Stock to be issued to our shareholders in the Proposed Merger. Special meetings will be scheduled to
obtain the approval of our shareholders and WPCs shareholders of the Proposed Merger. The closing of the Proposed Merger is subject to customary closing conditions and to the condition that WPC has completed its previously-announced conversion
to a REIT. If the Proposed Merger is approved and the other closing conditions are met, we currently expect that the closing will occur by the third quarter of 2012, although there can be no assurance of such timing.

In the Proposed Merger, our shareholders will be entitled to receive $1.25 in cash and 0.2326 shares of WPC common stock for each share of our common
stock owned, which equated to $11.73 per share based on WPCs $45.07 per share closing price as of February 17, 2012, the date that the merger agreement was signed. Due to the fixed stock component of the merger consideration, the value of
the merger consideration will fluctuate with changes in the market price of WPCs shares. As described below, our NAV was $10.40 as of September 30, 2011, the most recent available date. The estimated total Proposed Merger consideration
includes cash of approximately $151.8 million and the issuance of approximately 28,241,000 shares of WPC common stock, based on our total shares outstanding of 131,566,206, of which 10,153,074 shares were owned by WPC, at February 17, 2012.
Additionally, if the Proposed Merger is consummated, WPC has agreed to waive its subordinated disposition and termination fees. The Proposed Merger is expected to be tax-free for U.S. Federal purposes, except for any gain up to the amount of the
cash consideration and the receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares.

In February 2012, our Board of Directors suspended participation in
our DRIP in light of the Proposed Merger.

Current Trends

General Economic Environment

We are impacted by macro-economic environmental
factors, the capital markets, and general conditions in the commercial real estate market, both in the U.S. and globally. Over the past few quarters, economic conditions in the U.S. appear to have stabilized, while the situation in Europe remains
uncertain. It is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these trends. Nevertheless, our views of the effects of the current financial and economic trends on our business, as well as our response to those trends, are presented below.

Foreign Exchange Rates

We
have foreign investments and, as a result, are impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our results of foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar relative to foreign
currencies. Investments denominated in the Euro accounted for approximately 35% of our annualized contractual minimum base rent at March 31, 2012. International investments carried on our balance sheet are marked to the spot exchange rate as of
the balance sheet date. The U.S. dollar weakened at March 31, 2012 versus the spot rate at December 31, 2011. The Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate at March 31, 2012, $1.3339, represented a 3% increase from the December 31, 2011
rate of $1.2950. This weakening had a favorable impact on our balance sheet at March 31, 2012 as compared to our balance sheet at December 31, 2011.

The operational impact of our international investments is measured throughout the year. Due to the volatility of the Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate, the average rate we utilized to measure these
operations decreased by 4% during the three months ended March 31, 2012 versus the same period in 2011. This decrease had an unfavorable impact on 2012 results of operations as compared to the prior year period. While we actively manage our
foreign exchange risk, a significant unhedged decline in the value of the Euro could have a material negative impact on our NAVs, future results, financial position and cash flows.

During the past few quarters, capital markets conditions in the U.S. exhibited some signs of post-crisis improvement, including new issuances of commercial mortgage-backed securities debt and increasing
capital inflows to both commercial real estate debt and equity markets, which helped increase the availability of mortgage financing and sustained transaction volume. We have seen the cost for domestic debt stabilize while the Federal Reserve has
kept interest rates low and new lenders, including insurers, have introduced capital. Internationally, we continue to see that events in the Euro-zone have impacted the price and availability of financing and have affected global commercial real
estate capitalization rates, which vary depending on a variety of factors, including asset quality, tenant credit quality, geography and lease term.

Financing Conditions

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we observed
stabilization in the U.S. credit and real estate financing markets. However, the sovereign debt issues in Europe that began in the second quarter of 2011 had the impact of increasing the cost of debt in certain international markets and made it more
challenging for us to obtain debt for certain international deals.

Real Estate Sector

As noted above, the commercial real estate market is impacted by a variety of macro-economic factors, including but not limited to growth in gross
domestic product, unemployment, interest rates, inflation and demographics. We have seen modest improvements in these domestic macro-economic factors since the beginning of the credit crisis. However, internationally these fundamentals have not
significantly improved, which may result in higher vacancies, lower rental rates and lower demand for vacant space in future periods related to international properties. We are chiefly affected by changes in the appraised values of our properties,
tenant defaults, inflation, lease expirations and occupancy rates.

Net Asset Value

The advisor generally calculates our NAV by relying in part on an estimate of the fair market value of our real estate provided by a third party,
adjusted to give effect to the estimated fair value of mortgages encumbering our assets (also provided by a third party) as well as other adjustments. Our NAV is based on a number of variables, including individual tenant credits, lease terms,
lending credit spreads, foreign currency exchange rates and tenant defaults, among others. We do not control all of these variables and, as such, cannot predict how they will change in the future.

In connection with our consideration of potential liquidity transactions, including the Proposed Merger, we instructed our advisor to update our NAV as
of September 30, 2011 and to retain a third party to prepare an appraisal of our real estate portfolio and a fair valuation of our debt. Based on the third partys analysis, our advisor calculated our NAV at September 30, 2011 to be
$10.40, unchanged from our NAV at December 31, 2010.

Credit Quality of Tenants

As a net lease investor, we are exposed to credit risk within our tenant portfolio, which can reduce our results of operations and cash flow from
operations if our tenants are unable to pay their rent. Tenants experiencing financial difficulties may become delinquent on their rent and/or default on their leases and, if they file for bankruptcy protection, may reject our lease in bankruptcy
court, resulting in reduced cash flow, which may negatively impact our NAV and require us to incur impairment charges. Even where a default has not occurred and a tenant is continuing to make the required lease payments, we may restructure or renew
leases on less favorable terms, or the tenants credit profile may deteriorate, which could affect the value of the leased asset and could in turn require us to incur impairment charges.

Despite improvement in general business conditions during the past few quarters, which had a favorable impact on the overall credit quality of our tenants, we believe that there still remain significant
risks to an economic recovery in the Euro-zone. As of the date of this Report, we have no exposure to tenants operating under bankruptcy protection. It is possible, however, that tenants may file for bankruptcy or default on their leases in the
future and that economic conditions may again deteriorate.

To mitigate credit risk, we have historically looked to invest in assets that we
believe are critically important to our tenants operations and have attempted to diversify our portfolio by tenant, tenant industry and geography. We also monitor tenant performance through review of rent delinquencies as a precursor to a
potential default, meetings with tenant management and review of tenants financial statements and compliance with any financial covenants. When necessary, our asset management process includes restructuring transactions to meet the evolving
needs of tenants, re-leasing properties, refinancing debt and selling properties, as well as protecting our rights when tenants default or enter into bankruptcy.

Inflation impacts our lease revenues because our leases generally have rent adjustments that are either fixed or based on formulas indexed to changes in the consumer price index (CPI) or other
similar indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located. Because these rent adjustments may be calculated based on changes in the CPI over a multi-year period, changes in inflation rates can have a delayed impact on our results of
operations. We have seen a return of moderate inflation during the past two quarters that we expect will drive rent increases in our portfolio in coming years.

Lease Expirations and Occupancy

Lease expirations and occupancy rates impact our
revenues. Our advisor actively manages our portfolio and begins discussing options with tenants in advance of scheduled lease expirations. In certain cases, we may obtain lease renewals from our tenants; however, tenants may elect to move out at the
end of their term or may elect to exercise purchase options, if any, in their leases. In cases where tenants elect not to renew, we may seek replacement tenants or try to sell the property. For those leases that we believe will be renewed, it is
possible that renewed rents may be below the tenants existing contractual rents and that lease terms may be shorter than historical norms. As of March 31, 2012, we have no significant leases scheduled to expire in the next 12 months. Our
occupancy was 99% at March 31, 2012, an increase of 3% from December 31, 2011.

These revenues are generated in consolidated investments, generally with our affiliates, and on a combined basis include revenues applicable to noncontrolling interests
totaling $13.7 million and $14.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(b)

Amounts are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The average conversion rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro during the three months
ended March 31, 2012 decreased by approximately 4% in comparison to the same period in 2011, resulting in a negative impact on lease revenues for our Euro-denominated investments in the current year period.

(c)

This increase was primarily due to an adjustment made in the fourth quarter of 2011 related to amendments and adjustments to direct financing leases.

(d)

In December 2011, at the end of its lease term, Thales S.A. vacated the building and the subsidiary entered into leases with three new tenants at significantly reduced
rent.

We recognize income from equity investments in real estate, of which lease revenues are a significant component. The

(a)

In addition to lease revenues, the investment also earned interest income of $0.4 million and $0.3 million on a note receivable for the three months ended
March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(b)

Amounts are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The average conversion rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the Euro during the three months
ended March 31, 2012 decreased by approximately 4% in comparison to the same period in 2011, resulting in a negative impact on lease revenues for our Euro-denominated investments in the current year period.

(c)

We acquired our interest in this investment in January 2011.

(d)

This increase was primarily due to an adjustment made in the first quarter of 2012 related to amendments and adjustments to direct financing leases.

(e)

In January 2011, the Hinckley investment was restructured and the investment received a 27% equity stake in Talaria Holdings, LLC in return for a 5-year restructured
rent schedule, which resulted in a reduction in lease revenue.

(f)

In July 2011, the investment sold all 11 of its retail properties. The investment continues to own a distribution center.

Lease Revenues

As of March 31,
2012, 76% of our net leases, based on annualized contractual minimum base rent, provide for adjustments based on formulas indexed to changes in the CPI, or other similar indices for the jurisdiction in which the property is located, some of which
have caps and/or floors. In addition, 24% of our net leases have fixed rent adjustments. We own international investments and, therefore, lease revenues from these investments are subject to fluctuations in exchange rate movements in foreign
currencies, primarily the Euro. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, we entered into one new lease with a total contractual annual minimum base rent of approximately $0.3 million, a tenant improvement allowance of $0.1 million and a lease
term of approximately 10 years.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, lease revenues
decreased by $0.2 million, primarily as a result of reductions in lease revenues of $0.9 million from the unfavorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations and $0.9 million due to the effects of lease restructurings and lease expirations. These
decreases were partially offset by scheduled rent increases on several properties totaling $1.2 million and changes in estimates of the unguaranteed residual value of certain properties carried as net investment in direct financing leases of $0.4
million.

Other operating income generally consists of costs reimbursable by tenants and non-rent related revenues, including, but not limited to, settlements of claims against former lessees. We receive
settlements in the ordinary course of business; however, the timing and amount of such settlements cannot always be estimated. Reimbursable tenant costs are recorded as both income and property expense, and, therefore, have no impact on our results
of operations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, other operating income increased by
$4.9 million due to the receipt of $4.8 million in lease termination income related to Thales S.A. vacating the property.

General and
Administrative

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, general and administrative expenses
increased by $2.5 million, primarily due to $1.3 million in costs incurred related to the Proposed Merger, as well as increases in professional fees of $1.1 million. Professional fees include accounting, legal and investor-related expenses incurred
in the normal course of business.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, depreciation and amortization decreased by $0.8 million, primarily as a result of several lease intangibles becoming
fully amortized in 2011.

Allowance for Credit Losses

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded an allowance for credit losses of $1.4 million on a direct financing lease as a result of the tenant experiencing financial difficulties.

Income from Equity Investments in Real Estate

Income from equity investments in real estate represents our proportionate share of net income or loss (revenue less expenses) from investments entered into with affiliates or third parties in which we
have a noncontrolling interest but over which we exercise significant influence.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared
to the same period in 2011, income from equity investments in real estate decreased by $0.7 million, primarily due to an increase of $0.6 million in the net loss recognized by our Hellweg 2 investment as a result of an increase in its foreign trade
and income taxes.

Other Income and (Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) generally consists of gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and derivative instruments. We and certain of our foreign consolidated subsidiaries have intercompany
debt and/or advances that are not denominated in the relevant entitys functional currency. When the intercompany debt or accrued interest thereon is remeasured against the functional currency of the entity, a gain or loss may result. For
intercompany transactions that are of a long-term investment nature, the gain or loss is recognized as a cumulative translation adjustment in Other comprehensive income. We also recognize gains or losses on foreign currency transactions when we
repatriate cash from our foreign investments. In addition, we have certain derivative instruments, including embedded credit derivatives and common stock warrants, for which realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings. The
timing and amount of such gains and losses cannot always be estimated and are subject to fluctuation.

For the three months ended
March 31, 2012, we recognized net other income of $0.4 million, which was comprised primarily of net unrealized foreign currency transaction gains of $0.8 million, partially offset by a net loss on sale of real estate of $0.3 million. During
the comparable prior year period, we recognized net other income of $1.7 million, which was comprised primarily of net unrealized and realized foreign currency transaction gains of $1.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Interest Expense

For the three months
ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, interest expense decreased by $1.0 million, primarily due to a decrease of $0.5 million as a result of making scheduled mortgage principal payments and paying off non-recourse
mortgages during 2011, which cumulatively reduced the balances on which interest was incurred. Interest expense also decreased by $0.4 million as a result of the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized a net loss from discontinued operations of $0.1 million.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $2.6 million, due to an impairment charge of $8.6 million related to a domestic property to reduce its
carrying value to its estimated fair value based on contracted sales price partially offset by the following gains on income: a $4.5 million gain on deconsolidation of a subsidiary we recognized when we consented to a court order appointing a
receiver on properties previously leased to Advanced Accessory Systems LLC (Note 13); net gains of $0.7 million recognized on the sale of two domestic properties; and income generated from the operations of discontinued properties of $0.8 million.

Net Income Attributable to CPA®:15 Shareholders

For the three
months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011, the resulting net income attributable to
CPA®:15 shareholders increased by $2.4 million.

Modified Funds from Operations (MFFO)

MFFO is a non-GAAP measure we
use to evaluate our business. For a definition of MFFO and a reconciliation to net income attributable to
CPA®:15 shareholders, see Supplemental Financial Measures below. For the three months ended March 31, 2012
as compared to the same period in 2011, MFFO increased by $2.5 million, primarily due to the receipt of $4.8 million in lease termination income related to the former Thales S.A. lease.

Financial Condition

Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period

We use the cash flow generated from our investments to meet our operating expenses, service debt and fund distributions to shareholders. Our cash flows
fluctuate period to period due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things, the timing of purchases and sales of real estate, the timing of the receipt of proceeds from and the repayment of non-recourse mortgage loans and receipt
of lease revenues, the advisors annual election to receive fees in shares of our common stock or cash, the timing and characterization of distributions from equity investments in real estate, payment to the advisor of the annual installment of
deferred acquisition fees and interest thereon in the first quarter and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Despite these fluctuations, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations and from equity distributions in excess
of equity income in real estate to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, the proceeds of non-recourse mortgage loans and the issuance of additional equity securities to meet
these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.

Operating Activities

During the three
months ended March 31, 2012, we used cash flows from operating activities of $39.4 million primarily to fund net cash distributions to shareholders of $19.2 million, which excluded $4.7 million in dividends that were reinvested by shareholders
in shares of our common stock through our DRIP, and to pay distributions of $6.4 million to affiliates that hold noncontrolling interests in various investments with us.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities are generally comprised of real
estate-related transactions (purchase and sales), payment of our annual installment of deferred acquisition fees to the advisor and capitalized property-related costs. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we received proceeds totaling
$21.6 million from the sale of three properties and $2.3 million in distributions from our equity investments in real estate in excess of cumulative equity income. We also received $1.6 million in proceeds from the repayment of a note receivable.
Funds totaling $43.6 million and $42.3 million were invested in and released from, respectively, lender-held investment accounts. We also contributed $2.5 million to our jointly-owned Builders FirstSource, Inc. investment to repay the outstanding
balance on its maturing non-recourse mortgage loan. In January 2012, we paid our annual installment of deferred acquisition fees to the advisor, which totaled $1.5 million.

As noted above, we paid distributions to shareholders and to affiliates that hold noncontrolling interests in various investments with us. We also made scheduled and prepaid mortgage principal
installments of $9.2 million and $17.6 million, respectively. Funds totaling $23.9 million and $23.8 million were released from and placed into, respectively, lender-held escrow accounts for mortgage-related payments.

We maintain a quarterly redemption plan pursuant to which we may, at the discretion of our board of directors, redeem shares of our common stock from
shareholders seeking liquidity. The terms of the plan limit the number of shares we may redeem so that the shares we redeem in any quarter, together with the aggregate number of shares redeemed in the preceding three fiscal quarters, does not exceed
a maximum of 5% of our total shares outstanding as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. In addition, our ability to effect redemptions is subject to our having available cash to do so. Due to higher levels of redemption requests as
compared to prior years, as of the second quarter of 2009 redemptions totaled approximately 5% of total shares outstanding. In light of reaching the 5% limitation and our desire to preserve capital and liquidity, in June 2009 our board of directors
approved the suspension of our redemption plan. We have made limited exceptions to the suspension of the plan in cases of death, qualifying disability or receipt of qualifying long-term care. The suspension continues as of the date of this Report
and will remain in effect until our board of directors, in its discretion, determines to reinstate the redemption plan. We cannot give any assurances as to the timing of any further actions by the board with regard to the plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we received qualified requests to redeem 90,770 shares of our common stock through our redemption
plan, pursuant to the limited exceptions described above, all of which were redeemed during the second quarter of 2012. We funded these share redemptions from the proceeds of the sale of shares of our common stock pursuant to our DRIP.

Adjusted Cash Flow from Operating Activities (ACFO)

ACFO is a non-GAAP measure we use to evaluate our business. For a definition of ACFO and reconciliation to cash flow from operating activities, see Supplemental Financial Measures below.

Our ACFO for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $35.6 million, an increase of $1.9 million over the comparable prior year period. This
increase was primarily due to the increase in cash flow from operating activities.

Variable-rate debt at March 31, 2012 included (i) $155.6 million that was effectively converted to fixed rates through interest rate swap derivative
instruments and (ii) $99.9 million in non-recourse mortgage loan obligations that bore interest at fixed rates but that convert to variable rates during their terms.

Cash Resources

At March 31, 2012, our cash resources consisted of cash and
cash equivalents totaling $164.2 million. Of this amount, $27.2 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held by foreign subsidiaries, but we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts. We
also had unleveraged properties that had an aggregate carrying value of $60.1 million at March 31, 2012, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties. Our cash resources may be used for
working capital needs and other commitments.

Cash Requirements

During the next 12 months, we expect that our cash payments will include paying distributions to our shareholders and to our affiliates who hold noncontrolling interests in our subsidiaries, making
scheduled mortgage loan principal payments of $199.4 million, as well as other normal recurring operating expenses. Balloon payments on our mortgage loan obligations totaling $160.0 million will be due during the next 12 months, inclusive of amounts
attributable to noncontrolling interests of $32.4 million, and exclude our share of balloon payments on our unconsolidated jointly-owned investments of $14.1 million. We are actively seeking to refinance certain of these loans and believe we have
sufficient financing alternatives and/or cash resources that can be used to make these payments.

We expect to fund future investments, any
capital expenditures on existing properties and scheduled debt maturities on non-recourse mortgage loans through cash generated from operations or the use of our cash reserves.

cost-sharing agreement with certain affiliates for the purpose of leasing office space used for the administration of real estate entities. Amounts under the cost-sharing agreement are allocated among the entities based on gross revenues and are
adjusted quarterly. The table above excludes the rental obligations under ground leases of two investments in which we own a combined interest of 38%. These obligations total $31.0 million over the lease terms, which extend through 2091. We account
for these investments under the equity method of accounting.

Amounts in the table above related to our foreign operations are
based on the exchange rate of the local currencies at March 31, 2012, which consisted primarily of the Euro. At March 31, 2012, we had no material capital lease obligations for which we were the lessee, either individually or in the
aggregate.

We have investments in unconsolidated investments that own single-tenant properties net leased to corporations. Generally, the underlying investments are jointly-owned with our affiliates. Summarized
financial information for these investments and our ownership interest in the investments at March 31, 2012 is presented below. Summarized financial information provided represents the total amounts attributable to the investments and does not

excludes a related noncontrolling interest that is redeemable by the unaffiliated third party. The note receivable and noncontrolling interest each had a carrying value of $21.9 million at March 31, 2012.

Subsequent Events

In April 2012, a
subsidiary in which we and WPC hold interests of 54% and 46%, respectively, sold its interest in six properties leased to Médica  France, S.A. for approximately $55.2 million. Based on our ownership interest, our share of the proceeds
will be approximately $29.8 million.

Supplemental Financial Measures

In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies.
Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we employ the use of supplemental non-GAAP measures, which are uniquely defined by our management. We believe these measures are useful to
investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to the most directly
comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

Funds from Operations (FFO) and MFFO

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts,
Inc., or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations, or FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a real estate investment trust, or REIT.
The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. FFO is not equivalent to nor a substitute for net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO
approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004, or the White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges
on real estate, depreciation and amortization; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly-owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly-owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO. Our FFO
calculation complies with NAREITs policy described above.

The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires
straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant
circumstances and/or is requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed. We believe that, since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest
rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation may be less informative. Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP. Any
other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP. Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO,
which excludes the impact of real estate-related depreciation and amortization as well as impairment charges of real estate-related assets, provides a more complete understanding of our performance to investors and to management, and when compared
year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income. In particular, we
believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions which can change over time. An asset will only be
evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indications exist and if the carrying, or book value, exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and
any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset. Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance,
because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining
whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO described above, investors are cautioned that, due to the fact that impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows
and the relatively limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges. However, FFO and MFFO, as described below, should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in
calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating the operating performance of the company. The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational
performance and considered more prominently than the non-GAAP FFO and MFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.

Changes in the accounting and reporting promulgations under GAAP (for acquisition fees and expenses from a capitalization/depreciation model to an
expensed-as-incurred model) were put into effect in 2009. These other changes to GAAP accounting for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREITs definition of FFO have prompted an increase in cash-settled expenses, specifically
acquisition fees and expenses for all industries as items that are expensed under GAAP, that are typically accounted for as operating expenses. Management believes these fees and expenses do not affect our overall long-term operating performance.
Publicly registered, non-listed REITs typically have a significant amount of acquisition activity and are substantially more dynamic during their initial years of investment and operation. While other start-up entities may also experience
significant acquisition activity during their initial years, we believe that non-listed REITs are unique in that they have a limited life with targeted exit strategies within a relatively limited time frame after acquisition activity ceases. In the
prospectus for our follow-on offering dated March 19, 2003 (the Prospectus), we stated our intention to begin considering liquidity events (i.e., listing of our common stock on a national exchange, a merger or sale of our assets or
another similar transaction) for investors generally commencing eight years following the investment of substantially all of the proceeds from our public offerings, which occurred in 2004, and on February 17, 2012 we entered into an agreement
to merge with and into a subsidiary of WPC. Thus, we do not intend to continuously purchase assets and intend to have a limited life. Due to the above factors and other unique features of publicly registered, non-listed REITs, the Investment Program
Association (IPA), an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as MFFO, which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-listed REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate
supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a non-listed REIT having the characteristics described above. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact
of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate with a limited life and targeted exit strategy, as currently intended. We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of investing activities
and other non-operating items included in FFO and also excludes acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired, MFFO can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the
sustainability (that is, the capacity to

continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring properties and once our portfolio is in place. By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting
useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance now that our offering has been completed and essentially all of our properties have been acquired. We also believe that MFFO is a
recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry. Further, we believe MFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance since our offering and essentially all of our acquisitions are
completed with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in acquisition activities. Investors are cautioned that MFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of a companys
operating performance after a companys offering has been completed and properties have been acquired, as it excludes acquisition costs that have a negative effect on a companys operating performance during the periods in which properties
are acquired.

We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the IPAs Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for
Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations, or the Practice Guideline, issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, as applicable, included in the
determination of GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent receivables and amortization of above and below market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP
accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; nonrecurring impairments of real estate-related investments (i.e., infrequent or unusual, not
reasonably likely to recur in the ordinary course of business); mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; nonrecurring gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or
securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated
and unconsolidated partnerships and jointly-owned investments, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, nonrecurring unrealized gains and losses
on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by
operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized. While we are responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk, we retain an outside consultant to review
all our hedging agreements. Inasmuch as interest rate hedges are not a fundamental part of our operations, we believe it is appropriate to exclude such infrequent gains and losses in calculating MFFO, as such gains and losses are not reflective of
on-going operations.

Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPAs Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude
acquisition-related expenses, amortization of above- and below-market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to noncontrolling interests. Under GAAP,
acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income. These expenses are paid in cash by a company. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to
investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by the company, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property,
these fees and expenses and other costs related to such property. Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non-cash fair value and other non-cash adjustments are considered operating non-cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from
operating activities. In addition, we view fair value adjustments of derivatives and gains and losses from dispositions of assets as infrequent items or items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized, and which are not reflective of
on-going operations and are therefore typically adjusted for assessing operating performance.

Our management uses MFFO and the adjustments
used to calculate it in order to evaluate our performance against other non-listed REITs which have limited lives with short and defined acquisition periods and targeted exit strategies shortly thereafter. As noted above, MFFO may not be a useful
measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate in this manner. We believe that our use of MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it allow us to present our performance in a manner that reflects
certain characteristics that are unique to non-listed REITs, such as their limited life, limited and defined acquisition period and targeted exit strategy, and hence that the use of such measures is useful to investors. For example, acquisition
costs were generally funded from the proceeds of our offering and other financing sources and not from operations. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, the use of MFFO provides information consistent with managements analysis of the
operating performance of the properties. Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as
rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance. By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe MFFO provides useful supplemental
information.

Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating
performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO and MFFO the same way, so comparisons with other

REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss)
or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make
distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with other GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance.

Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory
body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-listed REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO accordingly.

FFO and MFFO for all periods presented are as follows (in thousands):

(a)

The SEC Staff has recently stated that they take no position on the inclusion or exclusion of impairment write-downs in arriving at FFO. Since 2003, NAREIT has taken
the position that the exclusion of impairment charges is consistent with its definition of FFO. Accordingly, we have revised our computation of FFO to exclude impairment charges, if any, in arriving at FFO for all periods presented.

Under GAAP, rental receipts are allocated to periods using various methodologies. This may result in income recognition that is significantly different than underlying
contract terms. By adjusting for these items (to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments), management believes that MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized
economic impact of lease terms and debt investments, provides insight on the contractual cash flows of such lease terms and debt investments, and aligns results with managements analysis of operating performance.

(c)

In evaluating investments in real estate, management differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such
information would be comparable only for non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental
information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with managements analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our advisor
or third parties. Acquisition fees and expenses under GAAP are considered operating expenses and as expenses included in the determination of net income and income from continuing operations, both of which are performance measures under GAAP. All
paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to shareholders, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition
of properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to the property.

(d)

Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed at least annually for impairment, and certain intangibles are assumed to diminish predictably in
value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions,
management believes that by excluding charges relating to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.

(e)

Management believes that adjusting for fair value adjustments for derivatives provides useful information because such fair value adjustments are based on market
fluctuations and may not be directly related or attributable to our operations.

(f)

Management believes that adjusting for mark-to-market adjustments is appropriate because they are items that may not be reflective of on-going operations and reflect
unrealized impacts on value based only on then current market conditions, although they may be based upon current operational issues related to an individual property or industry or general market conditions. The need to reflect mark-to-market
adjustments is a continuous process and is analyzed on a quarterly and/or annual basis in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted
Cash Flow from Operating Activities (ACFO)

ACFO refers to our cash flow from operating activities (as computed in accordance with GAAP)
adjusted, where applicable, primarily to: add cash distributions that we receive from our investments in unconsolidated jointly-owned real estate investment entities in excess of our equity income; subtract cash distributions that we make to our
noncontrolling partners in jointly-owned real estate investment entities that we consolidate; and eliminate changes in working capital. We hold a number of interests in jointly-owned real estate investment entities, and we believe that adjusting our
GAAP cash flow provided by operating activities to reflect these actual cash receipts and cash payments, as well as eliminating the effect of timing differences between the payment of certain liabilities and the receipt of certain receivables in a
period other than that in which the item is recognized, may give investors additional information about our actual cash flow that is not incorporated in cash flow from operating activities as defined by GAAP.

We believe that ACFO is a useful supplemental measure for assessing the cash flow generated from our core operations as it gives investors important
information about our liquidity that is not provided within cash flow from operating activities as defined by GAAP, and we use this measure when evaluating distributions to shareholders.

(a)

Adjusted cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 includes a reduction of $1.3 million as a result of charges incurred in
connection with the Proposed Merger. Management does not consider these costs to be an ongoing cash outflow when evaluating cash flow generated from our core operations using this supplemental financial measure.

While we believe that ACFO is an important supplemental measure, it should not be considered an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a
measure of liquidity. This non-GAAP measure should be used in conjunction with cash flow from operating activities as defined by GAAP. ACFO, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs, may not be comparable to our ACFO measure.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk

Market risk is the
exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and equity prices. The primary risks to which we are exposed are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. We are exposed to further market risk
due to concentrations of tenants in particular industries and/or geographic region. Adverse market factors can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, we
view our collective tenant roster as a portfolio, and in its investment decisions the advisor attempts to diversify our portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.

Generally, we do not use derivative instruments to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk exposure and do not use derivative instruments to hedge
credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. However, from time to time we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and collars to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures.

Interest Rate Risk

The value of our real estate and related fixed-rate debt obligations
is subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, all of which may affect our
ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political
conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the value of our owned assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we attempt to obtain
non-recourse mortgage financing on a long-term, fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners

may obtain variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, may enter into interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements that effectively convert the variable-rate debt
service obligations of the loan to a fixed rate. Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterpartys stream of cash flow over a specific period, and interest rate caps limit the
effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. These interest rate swaps and caps are derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the forecasted
interest payments on the debt obligation. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps or caps are based is not exchanged. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.

We estimate that the net fair value of our interest rate swaps, which are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the
consolidated financial statements, was in a net liability position of $14.9 million, inclusive of amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests of $3.7 million, at March 31, 2012.

At March 31, 2012, substantially all of our long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates, was swapped to a fixed rate, or bore interest at fixed rates that were scheduled to convert to
then-prevailing market fixed rates at certain future points during their term. The annual effective interest rates on our fixed-rate debt at March 31, 2012 ranged from 4.3% to 10.0%. The annual interest rates on our variable-rate debt at
March 31, 2012 ranged from 3.3% to 7.6%. Our debt obligations are more fully described under Financial Condition in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations
outstanding at March 31, 2012 (in thousands):

A decrease or increase in interest rates of 1% would change the estimated fair value of this debt at March 31, 2012
by an aggregate increase of $37.0 million or an aggregate decrease of $35.7 million, respectively.

This debt is generally not subject to
short-term fluctuations in interest rates. As more fully described under Financial Condition  Summary of Financing in Item 2 above, a portion of the debt classified as variable-rate debt in the table above bore interest at fixed rates at
March 31, 2012 but has interest rate reset features that will change the fixed interest rates to then-prevailing market fixed rates at certain points during their terms.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We own investments in the European Union and as a
result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in various foreign currencies, primarily the Euro and, to a lesser extent, the British Pound Sterling, which may affect future costs and cash flows. We manage foreign
currency exchange rate movements by generally placing both our debt obligation to the lender and the tenants rental obligation to us in the same currency. This reduces our overall exposure to the actual equity that we have invested and the
equity portion of our cash flow. In addition, we may use currency hedging to further reduce the exposure to our equity cash flow. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), and therefore our foreign
operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar, and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recognized net unrealized foreign currency transaction gains of
$0.8 million and realized foreign currency transaction losses of less than $0.1 million, respectively. These gains and losses are included in Other income and (expenses) in the consolidated financial statements and were primarily due to changes in
the value of the foreign currency on accrued interest receivable on notes receivable from consolidated subsidiaries. Through the date of this Report, we had not entered into any foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the effects of adverse
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

We have obtained mortgage financing in local currency. To the extent that currency
fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service, as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from
changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Other

We own stock warrants that were granted to us by lessees in connection with structuring initial lease transactions and that are defined as derivative instruments because they are readily convertible to
cash or provide for net settlement upon conversion. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are determined using an option pricing model and are recognized currently in earnings as gains or losses. At March 31, 2012, warrants
issued to us were classified as derivative instruments and had an aggregate estimated fair value of $1.7 million, which is included in Other assets, net within the consolidated financial statements.

Our
disclosure controls and procedures include our controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief
executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a companys objectives and that future events may
impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation,
together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at March 31, 2012, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)
under the Exchange Act) were effective as of March 31, 2012 at a reasonable level of assurance.

Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal
quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we issued 247,575 shares of common stock to the advisor as consideration for performance fees. These shares were issued at $10.40 per share, which was our
most recently published NAV as approved by our board of directors at the date of issuance. Since none of these transactions were considered to have involved a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act,
the shares issued were deemed to be exempt from registration. In acquiring our shares, the advisor represented that such interests were being acquired by it for the purposes of investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof.
